  1. Yes, I didn't make it thru that version of A Christmas Carol.   I've liked Pearce in other movies, though.

    Lena Headey, Cersei herself

    Next:  Explorers (1985) two familiar names, either one is fine

    Even though I don't post here, it's fun to look at the 10 pictures you post to see if they look familiar.  I noticed you usually have an eclectic list but didn't realize that you had a certain formula you follow.  I also didn't know that Westerns were your favorite genre!

    The title of your thread is "HAVE YOU SEEN THESE 10 CLASSIC FILMS" and you include more recent movies.  Not to open a can of worms here but how do you define a classic film?  Are you going by strictly the quality of the movie since you are including new ones?    (Just curious not trying to be confrontational!)

    Interesting. Thanks for mentioning this.

    I've played "Framed" several times since and not surprisingly, the movies they use lean heavily on newer action or Avengers-type movies.  They did use Modern Times and The Shining, too. Initially, I wondered if it we could "borrow" the idea for Games and Trivia but remembered that you have a similar thread here.   Years ago, TCM had an online game page. A classic movie version of "Framed" would be perfect for TCM.

  4. I'll put a fork in this one: The first movies that each of the stars made after returning home from WWII service.  

     From wiki and imdb:

     "In 1945, Montgomery returned to Hollywood, co-starring and making his uncredited directing debut in They Were Expendable..."

     "Stewart's first postwar role was as George Bailey..."

    "Henry Fonda's first production after returning from U.S. Navy service in World War II."

    "Zanuck wanted Tyrone Power to star and delayed casting until Power finished his service in the Marines in January 1946."

    "This film was Clark Gable's first after he returned to Hollywood following his service in the Army Air Corps in World War II. He had joined in August 1942, following the death of his wife Carole Lombard. MGM hyped this film as Gable's big comeback, using the line, "Gable's Back and Garson's Got Him!" in the advertising."
